Description

This Routledge India publication provides a comprehensive examination of motherhood experiences and representations spanning ancient to modern India. The book challenges the notion that motherhood's centrality in women's lives is inevitable, instead presenting it as a manufactured ideology. Through systematic analysis of institutional structures including language, religion, media, law and technology, the contributors reveal how motherhood has evolved across different historical periods-from goddess worship through nationalism to contemporary applications. The chronologically arranged articles trace this conceptual journey while critically exploring how societal systems shape and reinforce expectations around motherhood. Ideal for scholars, researchers and students of anthropology, sociology and social sciences seeking to understand gender dynamics and women's roles within Indian society and culture.
